Offical Check-In List 10/30/04 "Magic"

Hmm, Dena - sounds like you're as sneaky as I am! HEE! HEE!

We were considering adding the REAS but decided against. However now I'm wavering again!

My only worry is the massage - for no other reason than that I am a little anxious in case Emma doesn't enjoy the Stack again and doesn't meet up with anyone like minded. I don't want her to be on her own too much.

How much is the REAS? Anyone know? It would be nice as it is our anniversary (23rd) on Halloween.

Dena, did they let you book brunch and High Tea as well as dinner at Palo.

Oh, I wish I was more decisive!!


By the way, Dena, I will have a word with young Emily when I see her. Sleep is good, baby, sleep is good!

Well, I should really be working, not lurking, so I will drop by later.

Have a good day, everyone.

I finally sat down and started filling the treat bags. We decided on a bag of pretzels, bag of teddy grams, gummy bears, a couple small pieces of candy, pencil, pumpkin straw, spider ring, and a disney keychain. Do you think that's enough?::yes::

I thought about doing the REAS package as well, but I think we skip it this time around. We only want to do one Palo night, not to picky and I don't need a massage. I'll just make the DH give me one. I thought about bringing some silk rose petals and a bottle of champagne, but I just found out that I may have some problem with my liver so no alchol for me until we figure it out. Probably nothing, but we are going to do more blood work to make sure. I asked the Doc if I can still go and he said sure! I figured if I had to I would be going even if attached to an IV!!!!

I got the disks, plastic covers and labels for the Halloween T & T. I'll take orders once we get together. I plan on bringing 50 on board and then if we run out, I'll just mail them when we get home. They will be between $2-3 dollars. I'll let you know once we get on board.

Ginger-count me in for the meet. I'll try and make tea if I can sneak away from the boys. I think mom needs some down time too.

I counted 2 kids under 1 and 2-3 kids ages 2 does that sound right? I made seperate treat bags for these guys since they can't have all the stuff. I figured on 47 treat bags so far, but have extra if I need some in the next few weeks. I can't believe we have that many kids. MY DS's have changed their minds about their costumes. Now TJ want's to be a pirate, and Alan is going to be a knight. I have a Lady in waiting costume, so I guess he will be my knight in shinning armour. DH will still be goofy(like he always is). By the way Tj is better now, luckly we got the bronchitis out with out having to use steriods. Now we are off today to the dentist. FUN!!!!

Have a great day!

Ginger- regarding the REAS package my TA called last month and the price did not go up if you already are booked for our cruise. They said it would be $299/per couple. I said I would consider it for that price. I would call the TA or disney and ask what the price is for our cruise.
 

Judi, don't forget to sign-up at Palo for the High Tea if you are thinking of joining us. If something comes up you can always cancel. I do hope there is nothing wrong with your liver or anything else for that matter.

Dena have you tried putting "SweetThing" down a little later in the evenings, but don't over stimulate her. Or maybe a little decaf Sleepy Time Tea and Tylenol before bedtime, a little night cap for her.:teeth: Mom can have a shot of rum WUWU!. I hope you're napping when she is, don't want you sick for the cruise.

No luggage out yet but I've got a nice collect of stuff going on in my closet.

I'm off from work tomorrow, Bill told me I had to pressure wash the decks. He's going to spray or roll deck protection on this weekend. He's also closing the pool, it's a chilly 70 degrees, we all jumped in yesterday for one last swim.

I got on the scales today, lost 2 more lbs but I blew it tonight with dinner, Stuffed Shells and garlic bread, I know bad girl, but I was tired and hungry. I'll workout longer and harder in the morning and get back on track.

You all have a great day tomorrow.:space: I'm off for now.
 
Judi I copied and pasted that information off the Disney Site.

That's great if it's less, but I'm not interested.
In my opinion it's too much money. And I say that only because they aren't offering anything that I'd be interested in.
I've never had a problem getting ressies at Palo.
We don't drink champange.
I find nothing wrong with the way the stateroom host turn the beds down.
I can bring my own toys.
And last, I don't want a woman to give me a massage.

Now if they are willing to find a good looking man like Joe Namath to give me that massage and let me sip a melon colada while he's doing it. Then I'd be glad to pay 10 times that amount. OH!! I'd be using my DH's money:teeth:



Good Night for sure this time.
 
Hi Everyone.
Rick and I went downtown to the Terminal to see the Disney Wonder in the Charleston Harbour. It was raining when we got there but we still had a great time. This is the 2nd time the Wonder had been in Charleston. She was here a few years ago running from a storm. We also got to hear the ships horn play "When You Wish Upon A Star". I actually goy teary eyed. Here Is the link to the Wonder below.

Ditto for me on ALL of the above . . except the Joe Namath part . . sorry. However, when I was a kid I was a member of Ozzie's Marching Chargers Honor Band, which was the offficial marching band for the San Diego Chargers. We did all the halftime shows (back then they were even televised - LOL). Once when the Chargers were playing the NY Jets and the band was lined up in the end zones waiting to take the field, Namath <I>knocked me down</I> as he was running off the field as halftime started. It was just a casual brush but enough to knock me flat. He picked me up and quickly apologized, then ran to the locker rooms. But even though I'm not a fan of his, I'll always remember that HUGE smile and I think about it every time I see your signature! ;)
 
Shari, He's never knocked me down, you lucky girl, but I've had a few Pro Baseball player run over me. I was a right sidelines Ballgirl for the Baltimore Orioles for 2 1/2 years.
Boog Powell flipped me over my sidelines chair during a game. He didn't take the time to pick me up, he did later ask me if I was O.K.. I also got chewed out by the front office for not getting out of his way fast enough.
I had fun with that job, Elrod Hendrickson taught me how pitch a baseball and Jim Palmer always wanted to brush my hair:crazy: . Jim later became my Bagboy at a gourmet grocery store I worked at. He would come in to shop and end up bagging groceries, as we talked.
Nice guy and I'm sure many women would have traded places with me but he just never did anything for me. It's been Joe and Joe only for me.:earseek:

Teri, I get weepy eyed everytime I see one of the ship in real life too.

O.K. I'm out of here, the sun is finally peeking throught the gloomy clouds.

Ginger,
There's a new book out on Joe Namath; I saw it in one of my People magazines! I thought of you immediately but kept forgetting to post about it. If you want any more info, just let me know and I'll dig out that magazine!

Have a great day everyone! Hard to believe that the cruise is only 6 1/2 weeks away!!!!!!!
 
Passing this on for your amusement:

When I voluntarily evacuated for Hurricane Frances, in addition to minimal clothing and such for the "mini vacation," I took <I>everything</I> I am taking on the cruise except my Halloween costume and treats for the T-or-T. My packed suitcase and tote for the cruise stayed in my trunk throughout my trip. I was not going to risk coming back to find it all damaged.

So I am still "already packed" for the cruise! :teeth:
 
Wow, we're really getting close!:bounce:

We booked this cruise back in August of 2003. Now it is so close I can feel it! Very soon we will be looking for those cruise documents to arrive.:Pinkbounc ::yes:: :yo-yo:

We are getting our T&T treats together. REAS reservations all set. Next thing you know, we will be packing.

Our family is PUMPED for this trip! :thewave:

Looking forward to meeting everyone.

Scott
 
Well we are in panic mode here in New Orleans ... It appears that Hurricane Ivan does not want to turn ..We are packing now and trying to decide if we are leaving or not. Since I work in a hospital in PICU I can be called in for duty sowe are just praying for the best right now

Wendy
 
Okay, I'll show my ignorance. Who is Joe Namath? I guess he's the guy on your signature, Ginger, but WHO is he? A sportsman of some kind? Sorry if this is a stupid question.

Taswira, there is no hope for you. Mind you my MIL tells me you can never pack too early. Not that I listen to her - I usually do mine at the last minute, otherwise we take far too much. Come to think of it we take too much anyway. LOL.

This time next week Emma will be on her way to China. It has come round so fast that it has almost taken us by surprise in the end. I think she is all set now. I will miss her loads (might need my Disfamily next week!) but am so pleased that she will get this opportunity.

Once she gets back on October 3rd, there will be less than 3 weeks to go before we leave for Florida and less than 4 till we cruise. Sounds good to me.

Ha-ha - - I am the opposite. If I pack the night before a trip, I keep adding more and more stuff I don't need. My cruise packing is down to a science. I take ONE 26" soft-sided rolling suitcase (the bag I check at the DCL terminal) and ONE shoulder tote. That is my packing for the 7-night cruise. For the 3 or 4-night, my checked bag is a 24" soft-sided, wheeled suitcase.

Packing that way, I wear a different outfit to dinner each night and have different casual clothes for each day. No problem and no surprises. :teeth:

BTW - Joe Namath is the infamous "Broadway Joe" - the best quarterback the New York Jets football team ever had. He was quite a womanizer in his younger days. For a long time he dated a stunning blonde Floridian named Suzie Storm, but they never married. He wrote a book back in the sixties called "<I>I Can't Wait Until Tomorrow, 'Cause I Get Better Looking Every Day</I>." He had a few restaurants called "Broadway Joe's." He went on to become an occasional TV sportscaster. I don't know what happened after that. I guess he got married to someone and turned "normal." I'm sure Ginger must know what he's up to nowadays.
 
Hello everyone

Been a couple of days since I've been on. Busy!!!

Went back to the gym.

Disneediva: Hope Ivan turns away or at least weakens. Keep you in our thoughts.

Karen: Hope Emma has A great time. She has been chating with DS and some others going on the cruise by IM. DS just gets a kick out of the time difference and eveything else. Me too. ::yes::

Don't think DH will be dressing up but I may put a few things together.

Shari: I always pack too much. This time it may be too many shoes!!!:hyper:

Hope everyone has a great day tomorrow. busy in work. Seems since I've been back the owner has been off. What is going on!!!

Karen, Joe Namath is just an old boyfriend of mine, he's nobody really........... HA!HA! just joking.
Joe Willie Namath was a Pro Football player for the New York Jets, voted most valuable player of the year for a few years with them. He later went on to play for the LA Rams but that didn't last for long. He is in the Hall of Fame for professional football player. He has done numerous endorsement for an assortment of products, from womens panty hose to his own design of man underwear. Oh! Disney too..
He was doing alot of theatre.
His most recent call to fame was just this past Dec 20. when he appeared drunk while being interviewed by Suzy Kolber an ESPN sidelines reporter. They were at a night football game, apparently Joe had been drinking all day.
Suzy was asking Joe a question about his old team, the New York Jets, his reply to her was " I want to kiss you," slurring his words he continues to say....."I couldn't care less about the team struggling."
He did get into a rehab program just days after that interview. He went in as an outpatient at Hanley-Hazelden, a West Palm Beach rehabilitation facility specializing in treatment of older adults. He is now sober, but because of very public drinking problems has lost the respect of the endorsement people.
He has been divorced since 1999 from his much younger wife, Tatiana May Namath, and he has custody of their 2 daughters who are now 18 and 13.
I could go on and on but will stop here and finish with telling you that today he is 62 years old and is looking better than any man his age should.

Thanks Lynda for the heads up on the new book, I have it.
 
Wow, Ginger, he sounds like the George Best of American football! George was a supremely talented footballer (soccer)who basically drank and womanised all his talent away. He is also now around 60 I think but I have to say, he looks DREADFUL!
 
Here is a sample of the disc label that I designed for T & T. If anyone has any suggestions let me know.

I want everyone's imput. I am going to put the labels on before we go so it will be done and all I have to do is burn the pictures. If anyone wants to contribute their pictures, make sure you bring your cable for your camera so we can download them. We have a kodak camera and I don't know if the cables can be used on other brand cameras.


Thanks
